WORTH IT
UPDATE ON DISCOLORATION
I went to the doctor on Tuesday 9-27-11 and he said my discoloration was hyper-pigmentation from the surgery and everything was fine. :-D
Also, I thought he would take out my stitches but he said they would dissolve. But they are still here 3 weeks later.
How long did it take yours to dissolve?

So it has been two weeks this Tuesday and I am hearing really well! However, on Friday I noticed a greenish blue bruise developing on near the crease of my right breast. It is tender to touch and feels like a rock is in there when I lay in certain positions.
Has anymore experienced this??

I didn't experience that, but if there's anything greenish in color, I would call the Dr--just to make sure there isn't any fluid/infection in there. Better to be safe than sorry :)

That could be an internal stitch. Keep an eye on it and have the doctor check it the next time you are in.
I had bruises appear out of no where for the first month. I think that is just all part of the healing process.

UPDATE!
My follow up appt went great! The doc said I am healing very nicely! The yellowish discharge wasn't wound separation! It was just a leak bw my stitch so in other words its just my body healing my wounds. He took off the tape you see in the pics above and told me to use Johnson (less adhesive) and tape up my anchor scar every night for two weeks to keep them moist which helps them heal. So today marks day two of pealing and reapply tape every night after my shower.
Yesterday marked my first week post surgery and I'm so excited! It feels like longer and I kinda wish it was. I'm ready to be healed and back to my old self! Nevertheless, I'm patient so..
WORK
Wednesday I went back to work and boy am I tiring easily! My boobs get sore too by the end of the day since I spend most of my time walking up and down the halls of a preschool. It's only been two days back at work and I came home and slept from 5-7 and now I'm in the bed ready to get some sleep so NIGHT!
